Copycat Tunacado Sandwich

The Tunacado sandwich gained so much popularity over the internet from well know chain Joe & Juice. Sandwiches became a very popular recipe remake, over Tiktok recently. It’s crispy bread packed with the flavor of creamy tuna filling and a combination of green pesto and avocado. Sound so refreshing? Yes, it was approved by everyone who tried it! So let’s going to learn how to make them at home. I’m coming up with a better version of these sandwiches.

Joe & The Juice Tunacado Sandwich Copycat

Not all the viral recipes over Tiktok are usually worth of try, I come across the newest trend of the Tunacado sandwich, so I decided to try this exciting recipe. After all, I have to admit this recipe couldn’t be better on its own.

The Tuna Filling

Tuna filling has to be creamy and delicious, packed with all flavors and nutrients. Everything picked is fresh and healthy. Here are the ingredients you will need to make Tunacado sandwich.

• Can of Tuna
• Cream Cheese
• Fresh Parsley
• Red Onion
• Celery
• Grind of Pepper

So, I’m starting by adding tuna to the bowl, as you need to crush big tuna pieces into small ones. Continue adding freshly chopped parsley, red onion, celery, cream cheese and pepper.

The most delicious tuna I know is my favorite John West. This tuna won’t disappoint you in quality and freshness. I like that tuna has already added salt, so it tastes great on its own, the pot doesn’t contain a lot of oil or water, so you will get just your delicious piece of fish.

Assembling the Tunacado Sandwich

Once we have prepared all our ingredients, we can start assembling our sandwiches. It’s an easy-peasy lemon squeeze. Here’s a list of ingredients you need for stuffing.

• Large Salad Tomato
• Green Pesto
• Grated Mozzarella
• Avocado
• Panini/ Flat Sandwich Bread

Instructions:

1. Combine a can of tuna chunks John West, cream cheese, onion, celery, parsley and pepper in a bowl. Mash until all ingredients are well combined, break tuna into very small pieces, and the mixture turns creamy and fluffy.
2. Meanwhile, slice your sourdough panini bread. Drizzle with some olive oil and toast it for about 6 minutes on the pan or in the oven.
3. Spread green pesto on one side of the sandwich bread, mozzarella cheese and tuna filling on the other. Top with sliced avocado on one side, and put sliced tomatoes on the other. Assemble sandwich together.
